Summary

Lakeview Middle School is a grades 7–8 school with 545 students in Warsaw, Indiana, part of Warsaw Community Schools in a northern Indiana community where about half of students come from low-income households. It ranks 153rd of 486 Indiana schools in 2025–2026 (69th percentile, 3 stars), and its long-term trend is strongly positive: it climbed from the 31st percentile in 2015–2016 to a recent high of 76th percentile with 4 stars in 2024–2025, then slipped to 69th percentile and 3 stars.

The most useful comparison is Edgewood Middle School — same district, same grades, just over a mile away — which ranks 122nd (75th percentile, 4 stars). Lakeview's English language arts is a genuine strength: 46.20% proficient versus Edgewood's 44.04, and above both district and state in 7th and 8th grade. Math is the clear weak spot: 36.48% versus Edgewood's 44.65, and below the district for four straight years. That leaves a 9.72-point ELA-over-math gap at Lakeview, while Edgewood is nearly balanced. Seventh-grade math, at 33.92%, falls below both district and state. Lakeview generally outranks other nearby middle schools such as Indian Springs Middle School, Wawasee Middle School, and West Noble Middle School.

Chronic absenteeism improved from 18.7% to 12.6%, now below the state's 16.7% but above the district's 9.7%. Per-student spending is $11,455 with a 12.6 student-teacher ratio — among the most favorable in the nearby group — so the math gap is not simply about funding or class size. Lakeview reports 97.5% to 100% Biology end-of-course proficiency, though that likely reflects a small or selective group of test-takers. Overall, Lakeview is a solidly above-average school with strong long-term growth and clear room to improve in math.
